Hmmnnn... Kinda Like This Poetry Thing

Seaweed So Small

Out from the horizon, the sun finally appears

Taking away the darkness, taking away the tears

The night was long, hopefully I’ll sleep through the day

The hours will pass quicker, and the day will decay

 

Want to be at the beach, sitting on the sand

Or perhaps in the ocean, far away from land

I need to be grounded, I need to feel small

What happens in life, isn’t always my call

 

Maybe I’ll give my sleep deprivation some help

Have a drink, or two, and dream I’m kelp

Microscopic seaweed, floating in the vast blue

Aimlessly taken, flowing to find truth

 

This world is not my oyster, and I am not a pearl

Suddenly I don’t know what’s around me, my body begins to twirl

Taken into the mouth of a creature, it is so black

Waking up from my fantasy, I didn’t want to come back
